In this paper, we present a method that aims at parcellating the cortical surface from individual anatomy. The parcellation is obtained using the Mutual Nearest Neighbor (MNN) criterion to obtain regions with similar structural connectivity. The structural connectivity is obtained by applying a probabilistic tractography on the diffusion MRI (dMRI), a non-invasive modality allowing access to the structural information of the white matter. The results are compared to some of the atlases that can be found in the literature. We show that these atlases have lower similarity of structural connectivity than the proposed algorithm implying that the regions of the atlases may have lower functional homogeneity.
